Story

I have spent a large part of my career inspiring, assisting and helping others. For the first time I am now going to ask for your assistance. I sincerely hope that you can answer my call.

As we get older we tend to think about what is that one place, one event, one challenge that should be on our bucket list of things to do. I am fortunate to have had a fantastic career and life’s journey, which means my list is quite small. My desire is to do something challenging but also something that will help others. I have decided to climb (or crawl on hands and knees if needed) to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Don’t worry, you don’t need to join me in the challenge or pain. You have the easy bit. All I ask is that you sponsor me for the price of one coffee. If you are exceedingly rich, you can sponsor more if you like. BUT JUST THE PRICE OF ONE COFFEE is all I ask. If every person I am linked with did that I would exceed my challenge total many times over.

I will be supporting the maritime charity Sailors’ Society and although I still think I am in my mid-twenties I most definitely am not so reaching
the summit (or not), all proceeds will go to the maritime charity. Thank you !
